This one took me awhile. For further notice, my brother who has experience recording music said he could help me produce future covers. So they will sound much more polished than the ones I've done so far. At the very least, I have learned a bit about how to hear something and arrange it. Kind of like Brian did with the Four Freshman all those years ago. But I realize, it's not easy!

I've listened to it, and I gotta say, I really like who you decide to cover some of the more overlooked BB's songs. When I first clicked on the link, I was only expecting you to cover only the musical portions of the track, like the "Fairy Tale Music" collage off of the Good Vibrations box set. But nope, you covered the entire 10 minute track. That definitely takes dedication! Keep up the good work man!

Maybe I put too much faith in atmosphere

I somehow missed this. Maybe because of the build-up to going away and then the holiday itself. I've just listened to it and it's beautiful! Eat your heart out, Mr Rieley. Grin

Great idea to actually have Bach playing when he's mentioned. And the visuals are awesome as always. I'm not on YouTube otherwise I'd comment there. It sounds very professional, probably for the reasons you give. I can imagine it was a lot of work!

Kudos, MTR. :=)

Thanks for the comments. I'm surprised it sounds professional. Everything was recorded on my iphone and transferred to my laptop where I added effects via audacity.
